Fetterman likened the House to the Jerry Springer Show after Ocasio-Cortez traded insults with Marjorie Taylor Greene on Thursday.
Senator John Fetterman mocked Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez after his Democratic colleagues butted heads with conservative firebrand and Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene during a congressional hearing.Fetterman responded to the clash in a post on X, formerly Twitter, Friday, writing: 'In the past, I've described the U.S. House as The Jerry Springer Show. Today, I'm apologizing to The Jerry Springer Show.
During a markup to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress, Greene asked Democrats on the panel if any of them were employing the daughter of the judge overseeing former President Donald Trump's criminal case. Greene's question prompted Crockett to ask the Georgia Republican: 'Do you know what we're here for?''I don't think you know what you're here for,' Greene shot back.
